Kujali International partners with local communities to establish free secondary boarding schools that provide a safe, enriched environment for orphaned and vulnerable children to learn, grow, and develop 21st century skills. In 2007, Kujali International and its partner, HOCET (Hananasif.org), launched the first free, private secondary boarding school in Mkuranga, Tanzania. Today, HOCET Secondary School (formerly "Hananasif Academy") serves 90 students, employs 8 local staff, and features pilot programs in agricultural farming, music, and fine arts.
But there's still important work to be done. In order to continue to provide a free, high-quality education to young people in need, Kujali must accomplish the following goals:
a) Complete school infrastructure so that HOCET Secondary School (HSS) can become a registered boarding school in Tanzania.
b) Continue to invest in the staff and leadership of HSS to ensure that, from school culture to classroom instruction, students have access to the quality education they deserve in a safe, enriched environment.
c) Ensure the long-term financial sustainability of the school by fully investing in Kujali's social impact model: small business investments in the community working to generate sustainable sources of income for the school.
If you're someone who believes in providing the next generation of young leaders with the opportunity to learn, grow, and pursue their own dreams, join us today. Whether you climb a mountain, donate $20, or volunteer your time and skills, we invite you to be a part of our vision to transform the lives and futures of children growing up in poverty.
